History

With a whole measure of watermelon syrup, this cocktail is on the sweet side, but beautifully balanced with delicate jalapeño heat – at least when using a controlled amount of jalapeño infused in the pisco.

This drink was created by David Osborne at Bellota tapas bar, San Francisco, USA. Incidentally, "purpurina" is Spanish for glitter or tinsel.
